Happy Halloween, dear readers! For today's Friday Afternoon Video, we're taking a trip down memory lane back to one of our fondest Halloween memories from our youth: dressing up like a demented French maid and singing along -- loudly -- at midnight showings of Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Spent all your cash on girlie drinks and shattered dreams again this weekend, didn't you? No worries - Thriftster gives you the lowdown on cheap stuff to do until Paycheck Friday. Monday: If you're still in the Halloween mood, after all that blood red jell-o shot slurping and blacklight body paint application, hit the Lawndale Center's (4912 Main St.) retablo exhibit. Doors close at 5pm, which gives you plenty of time to nosh on some...

Chicagoist is gearing up for this weekend's annual Air & Water Show along the lakefront. In what's becoming an annual tradition around there, staff member Todd McClamroch even got to fly with one of the participants. Chicagoist's decidedly opinionated readership was also appalled that one of their staffers found a popular local brewpub to be a great place to bring a kid.

Houstonist admits it: When we were in school, we pulled some pranks on our teachers. But we never set a teacher's hair on fire — and if we did, we probably wouldn't be here today to tell you about it.

Furthering his plan to live forever — and look a certain age while doing it — beloved local TV relic Marvin Zindler has undergone a 16th cosmetic surgery. Yes, you heard right: 16th. Zindler, 85, underwent the procedure Monday morning at St. Luke's Hospital.

When Houstonist missed Dave Chappelle's Block Party Tour last week at the Verizon, we had no idea we were actually missing one of the year's most inexplicable two-fer events. Yes, everyone's favorite congresswoman joined the comedian on stage for no apparent reason — we don't even know if there were any TV cameras around. The news comes to us from the Houston Press, which tells the story better than we could: Just before intermission, Chappelle...
